This place will now be your holding pen until your death. Because death is the only way out. There is no chance of reprieve here, No possibility of escape. You are condemned. Either accept it... Or die...

Put all hope out of your mind. And masturbate as little as possible, it drains the strength!

doglover:Now we get to feed and house this guy in special 100,000k per year chimo cells until someone has the chance to shank him, if ever.

What ever happened to the axe man?

He won't get shanked, there's no chance he'll be in genpop. But consider what protective custody is, it's no different than the standard solitary punishment. Devoid of human contact other than guards escorting him to his exercise cage for an hour a day, 5 days a week. 23 hours in a cell, alone. I'd be begging for the axe before too long. There's no legal punishment that can be inflicted on him that truly matches his crimes, but he's not going to have a pleasant rest of his life by any means.

Well, maybe letting Charles Ramsey have at him with a baseball bat, but that would be cruel and unusual.

nekom:There's no legal punishment that can be inflicted on him that truly matches his crimes, but he's not going to have a pleasant rest of his life by any means.

And that's another thing. Why do we want him dead? He tortured those girls and torture is wrong. But we're going to torture him to death, basically, because we've lost civilization to well meaning busy bodies who say "Oh my god, the death penalty looks so painful." It is a bit, but compared to the alternative of decades in the same room? Much more advanced is the society that ends it quickly.

He should be issued an old fashioned flintlock with one frangible ball, one charge of powder, and loading instructions any time he requests it.

I'm not sure, but I think long sentences like that are so that if new laws get enacted that knock off good behavior time, or allow for parole hearings at various stages of sentence completion that such prisoners simply won't be eligible.

What ever happened to the axe man?

I'm fine with this. I want him to spend the rest of his life surrounded by concrete walls. Your brain can be your worst enemy in prison when you have lots of time on your hands and nothing to do but think about how you got there. I hope his thoughts torture him to madness.

Any folks out there know for sure?

It's done mostly as a symbolic gesture actually

More or less this. Also consider as well that you only get to shower twice a week in protective custody because special arrangements are needed to allow it. So he'll get the full Castro experience he inflicted on those girls.

He wrote a suicidal note some years ago. He had every opportunity to do just that for a decade. He also could have refused the plea deal if he had wanted put down. Rotting in a lone cell for the rest of your life is the worst punishment we can possibly legally inflict. If ANYONE deserves that, it's this piece of shiat.

"There was that one time I added an extra dollar to my supermarket bill to support the local Girl Scouts while I was getting food for the women I imprisoned, tortured and raped for a decade, so, we're like even, right?"

Didn't this guy already start rambling to the judge that pornography had clouded his mind? I think he's jut gonna be making excuses and blaming the usual suspects in the hopes of getting some kind of sympathy.

Also: Wasn't there something about him asking for visitation with the child he fathered by one of these victims? I

If anyone should be eligible for QA's magic life extension formula, it should be this guy. Eternity, locked away, forever and forgotten.

I feel so bad for Mr. Castro, now that I know he has a "kinder, gentler, non-kidnapping and beating and raping three girls for a decade side" and I know I for one am looking forward to seeing his "kinder, gentler, non-kidnapping and beating and raping three girls for a decade side". It will certainly make me see him in a different light. Hopefully someone else will see him in a different light, preferably a low light concealing the shank they are placing in his chest.

IdBeCrazyIf:More or less this. Also consider as well that you only get to shower twice a week in protective custody because special arrangements are needed to allow it. So he'll get the full Castro experience he inflicted on those girls.

No, he won't.

Nobody will be chaining him to a pole, beating, and raping him. No parents will be sitting at home wondering what happened to him, hoping he will come home some day but deep down knowing he is probably dead and rotting in a ditch somewhere. His child isn't going to grow up thinking his parent just walked away.

What he will experience is nothing like what he inflicted on those girls. What he deserves is immediate death and it is sad that we as a nation have lost the balls to give it to him.

I would rather he be executed because I don't care to cover the expense of keeping him housed and fed for a crimes he committed that leave him ineligible for re-entry into society.His "torture" will not approach the level of that he performed, unless he can be raped, impregnated and give birth without assistance. Some of these repeatedly.I am of a mind that is is more merciful to execute someone than to give them the option of suicide and then drive them to despair to perform it. That negates any measure of mercy by jailers and that is wrong.Any humanity I might have felt for his fate will be long gone after the trail and publication of additional details.

Yes, the death penalty would not be "worse". It might be more humane. It makes me feel somewhat "icky" to argue "worse than death" for a person who is clearly guilty of crimes that forbid his ever being free again.

What is the point? He has at least one child by his actions - why invite any future reunion?

It's interesting how, when someone had done something very, very wrong, people want to dismiss information about anything he did right, and round up his evil score to 100%, rather than consider a total picture of his life that might make his evil score be 92.68%, and then consider how someone who is 92.68% evil should be treated differently than someone who is 100% evil. It's as though people like simplicity.

speaking of simplicity, who the fark is 100% "good" and "evil"? 92% or 100%, you're still getting an A. would you let the 92% guy babysit your kids?

There are shades of grey between the black and white of right and wrong and we can discuss the complexity of moral choices until the end of mankind.There is no daylight between "right" and these crimes of kidnapping and assault - period.There are not enough positive life events to alter the math. There is a reason kidnapping is a felony.

It's called "Being immune to Bullshiat". Which some people are not, hence the argument that, past a certain point, you lose the opportunity to "show your good side".

It's more interesting how quickly people become evil themselves when trying to cope with evil. The abyss looks back pretty damn quickly. It scares me how unethical these people are.

Castro does not have long to live. They'll put him into protective custody, but the second he arrives, the bidding war begins. You'll have prisoners falling all over themselves, each one trying to convince the guards to give him a chance to become The Guy Who Got Ariel Castro. It's only a matter of time before one of them offers a bribe so big that a guard caves. Or maybe some guard -one with daughters, no doubt- will just do it himself.

So he not only forced his captives to watch TV coverage the vigil the captives' parents held in hopes their daughters would come home, but he also went to one of the parents and asked for a "Missing" poster?

Zero mercy. None. Put him in a 6' x 3' windowless box with nothing but a fluorescent light's hum as company for the rest of his life.

Percentages of evil are meaningless, as nobody has ever been 100% evil because even history's inveterate douchebags have done nice things. Unless "100% evil" is an adjusted top score which equates to a lesser percentage of "absolute evil", which is acknowledged by the community to be impossible to achieve.

Mao Tse Tung was probably nice to his kids at some point.Hitler was an animal lover.Charles Manson probably swerved to avoid a family of ducks at some point in his pre-prison life.Ted Bundy passed the salt when somebody said "please pass the salt, Ted" at the dinner table (no citation, but come on - it has to have happened. Who hasn't passed the salt?)
